Travel tips you can trust

Why the
Imperial War Museum
is special

The Imperial War Museum does not lionize combat but gives us insight into
military tools and how hostilities affect the lives of military personnel and
civilians. After visiting the Imperial War Museum, you will have a keener
understanding of warfare.

Imperial War Museum
has five branches

The London and North are the two interesting.

London Branch

This is the main branch (pictured on the left side of the photo). These three
exhibits are among the highlights:

Simulation
of the sights, sounds and smells of trench fighting.

Reenactment
of what it was like to live through the World War II Blitz.

A
poignant presentation on the Holocaust.

North Branch

It is in Manchester and, like the London Branch, covers a broad range of warfare
subjects.
Its modern building is shown on the right side of the picture.
